What is a Quality Teacher?


Engaging Students
In these video clips from actual classrooms around the country, Doug Lemov, founder of the charter-school network Uncommon Schools, analyzes techniques that effective teachers use to get students to pay attention and follow instructions.

The Teaching Channel
Check out this GREAT website full of instructional videos of best practices in the art of teaching.
http://www.teachingchannel.org/
From their website..
  • "At the Teaching Channel we believe what makes teachers inspiring is how they became experts — the hours and years they’ve dedicated to improving their craft to benefit their students. Our mission is to capture their technique on video so that all teachers — new or seasoned — have a place to find inspiration. Of course you could just lean back and admire great stories, but we also provide tools to take a few notes, trade ideas, and even build your own personal workspace. And because we know teaching is not one-size-fits-all, we tailored our technology so you can find what works best for you."
These are two of the videos you can find there, more motivational than instructional… but great nonetheless, and a bit of inspiration!
